Depression

Amazingly today, I saw not one but three different instances where depression had driven someone to take their own life.  Most people seem to have the attitude that there would never be a point in their life when THEY would be in that state of mind.  I'm not saying that I am in that state of mind now but I have experienced it before.  One thing that keeps resounding in my head is that question.. Who would I be to judge someone else?  I don't want anyone judging me.  From what I understand, God has the final judgement on that.  You don't and neither do I.  I think I bit a hole in my jaw today from wanting to just go off on the judgemental person.  Ever heard of judge not lest you be judged.  Sorta like take the plank out of your eye before you tell me about the speck in mine.

Unfortuately,  I think lack of sleep and stress have me in one of those funky moods.  I can take care of both pretty quickly tonight though.  God always has a way of reminding me when I've done way too much and need the rest.  He's been nudging me for several days with achy and sadness.  I'm gonna listen for a change. 

I am so thankful that God is a God of love and peace.  I know that turning over these mundane things that absolutely drive me nuts is the way to go.  May God's love and peace surround you also.
